Award History

Until 2021, the grant was administered separately for the categories of assistant professors and associate professors. Established in spring 2019, the research project grants for assistant professors and associate professors, as two separate categories, were made possible through funds from Ketan and Tanuja Sheth Family Endowment and the Meghana and Vinayak Ranade Family Endowment respectively. The Center contributed funds to both awards.
